[Xen-devel] [PATCH] libxenlight: write stubdoms logs to file

[Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
it turns out that there is a better way to write stubdoms logs to file
than using libxl_console_attach: qemu is the one that provides the
console backend for stubdoms and qemu is able to redirect a serial to file,
so we can use this feature to make sure the first stubdom console is
always redirected to a logfile.
